Dear Lido Community,

We are excited to announce that as of 10/09/2024, Stakewithus is now part of Nansen.ai!

This acquisition aligns perfectly with our vision of providing seamless and secure staking services to a broader audience. Our staking expertise combined with Nansen’s advanced analytics capabilities sets the stage for an integrated, powerful and one-stop investment platform.

All of Stakewithus’s validators and related staking resources will remain fully operational by the exact same team. There are no operational changes (personnels + geographical distribution of nodes + vendors utilized) and we will be taking over the staking unit within Nansen. For a start, we have pushed out the Nansen Staking Hub, and the staking functionalities will be fully integrated into Nansen’s product suite in the coming months.

We will continue to run the SDVT mainnet nodes without any changes to our current team and infrastructure, and we hope to deepen our relationship with Lido when new opportunities arises. In fact, Nansen (via nansengov.eth) is now the top public delegate - this shows strong alignment with skin in the game.

For more information on the acquisition, visit the Nansen blog.

Both Nansen and Stakewithus are based in Singapore. Please feel free to ping us anytime if there are any questions!

Michael,  
on behalf of the Stakewithus team

Hi everyone, for transparency we have voted “For” on this snapshot as we believe we can continue operate with the required performance and security and to acknowledge the LNOSG recommendation as a DAO delegate.

I voted “For” because I believe LNOSG did a thorough evaluation, and keeping Nansen involved makes sense since there are no major changes.

TokenLogic believe that LNOSG’s careful assessment and endorsement affirm that Stakewithus’s acquisition by Nansen.ai is a positive development for the Lido ecosystem. This is a logical and beneficial step forward for both entities and the broader community.
